MDHM 701 - Listening to the Symbolic Language of the Body3 credits
The body has its own symbolic language. This means a communication from the self to the self often found in illness, ticks, hysterical conversions, muscle tightness, backaches, headaches, etc. The body often focuses the internal message, suppressed to the self by the psyche or the intellect. Various writers have attempted to understand this process for the sake of unraveling the meaning of illness. This course integrates a number of medical, spiritual, and psychological points of view. The course investigates the body-mind-spirit connection by turning to writers like Alexander Lowen, Daniel Goleman, Jon Kabat-Zinn, and Aame Siirala.
